Okay, well, fuck you! Why would I wait 30 minutes? I'll just buy from Amazon, shithead.

    It's because if someone tries to bruteforce your shit, you don't want them to get lucky, huh?

    Did it lock your account right away for 30 minutes or was it at the third or fourth attempt?

    @ethernetzero Yeah, 3rd attempt. But there was no warning, and no way to, for example, use a second factor of authentication to bypass the wait time. Additionally, like Irene said, 30 minutes is a bit much. :-/

    @pacohojaverde It is. Looks like they went a bit overboard with the security.

    @filthyranter Using some seconds is totally enough. Also, that should be locked to the originating IP because otherwise stuff like this is a security hole in itself - you can DOS somebody else.
